QVIST front hub | Classic 6-hole 15x110 mm Boost | silver
The still young brand QVIST was founded out of a passion for cycling and a preference for developing, manufacturing and riding bicycle components. QVIST is a completely rider-owned and -operated company that does not jump on every marketing hype, but only implements those topics that they themselves are convinced of. Their focus is on the love of cycling in all its facets, whether you are a mountain biker, gravel rider, road cyclist, commuter, bikepacker or cafe racer. Most of the innovative products are developed and manufactured near Dresden. The technical complexity of hubs in particular fascinates the engineers at QVIST and offers sufficient potential for improvement to optimize the drive in terms of performance and maintenance. Cycling in particular offers the opportunity to experience and enjoy nature in its entirety. For this reason, the founders decided on the name "QVIST", which is the outdated spelling of the Swedish word for "twig" - and the freewheel mechanism developed and patented by QVIST is somewhat similar to the branches and twigs of a fir tree.
QVIST's pride and joy is the rear hub with the patented Double Ratchet System, which has 120 engagement points, 60 of which are engaged simultaneously, resulting in the unique and rich stereo freehub sound. The hub has been optimized to provide an optimal balance of reliability, robustness and low weight. This is why the hub has a 17 mm axle, large steel bearings and all parts made of aluminum are made of 7075-T6 aluminum alloy. Furthermore, the sprockets are made of hardened, high-strength steel. The surface of the freehub body is hard anodized to make the aluminium surface more robust and wear-resistant. Another important feature of QVIST hubs is their ease of servicing. No special tools are required for disassembly, maintenance and reassembly. In addition, QVIST only uses standard sizes for the hub bearings, making it easy to obtain replacement bearings.
